Two blocks with masses m₁ = 4.17 kg and m₂ 10.49 kg on a frictionless surface collide head-on. The initial velocity of block 1 is 1,4 = 4.95 2 and the initial velocity of block 2 is 2,1 =-4.96 1 . After the collision, block 2 comes to rest. What is the x-component of velocity in units of of block 1 after the collision? Note that a positive component indicates that block 1 will be traveling in the i direction, and a negative component indicates that block 1 will be traveling in the direction. Please round your answer to 2 decimal places.
